What do you make with your embroidery machine?

I have two embroidery machines. One is a Singer Quantum XL5000, and the other is a Singer Futura. I love mine. I do alot with it. Here a few examples of my work.

OK Ladies and Gents. I guess I better get back to incorporating my embroidery with my quilts. And I do use it to quilt together a quilt. It is a pain to move the hoop but the back looks great especially when the back is solid fleece.
Some day I'll learn how to include pictures.

Decorate clothing, household goods, totes and bags? DH keeps telling me I need an embroidery machine, but I'm really not sure it would get that much use. Pics of all your handiwork are greatly appreciated! :-)

I made a wedding quilt with names and embroidered leaves to hang at my son's reception, a Bazoople baby quilt with embroidery of the design in the center, and a HS reunion quilt. Two of them are from the Speedy Baby Quilt II that has a 16 1/2" center you can embroider. That is just a few of the things, I put embroider designs and names on the top of Christmas stockings - http://www.nealsew.com/files/StockingDirections.PDF
I made a baby quilt by doing some of the blocks applique in the hoop from Anita Goodesign, Ahoy Baby. I used the same fabric from the other blocks for the applique and it blended the quilt so well with the sailboat blocks.
I like doing freestanding bookmarks in the hoop to give as gifts. Come to think of it, most of the embroidery I do are gifts!
I have a 10001 Janome Memory Craft for sale on the board since I have two embroidery machines - the one I am keeping has a few more advanced features. The Janome is in my avatar picture.
